Offline blog writing utility for Kubuntu

I am looking for an application to write these blog entries offline on my Dell Mini. I write a lot these entries on my work laptop, running Vista when I am not connected to the Internet. An example would be this post while I am at my sister-in-laws who don’t have high speed Internet. Another use case is when I am flying and have something I would like to write.

I use Windows Live Writer a lot and enjoying its simplicity, the ability to post to multiple blogs, ease of inserting pictures, etc and am looking for something similar in Kubuntu/KDE. I tried a program that was called KBlogger but couldn’t figure out how to connect to my wordpress blogs and there was no help manual for it.

So my question is: “What is the best offline blog writing app in KDE/Kubuntu?”

Someone linked me to you so excuse the self-plugging but in Kubuntu 8.10 KOrganizer includes a blogging feature which may perhaps meet your needs. If so or if not, please comment on my blog post or send me an email.
